Your suggestions to put a dummy frame/panel above had the same result as seen on my screenshot, it overlapped and is seen on the preview. moving the drawing area in the off by using negative coordinates had the effect, that the screen at those coordinates was dumped. So I had different windows on my preview. Its like you said, grab() is a screenshot of the x-window area of the component. I tried a picturebox instead of the drawing area, and tried to access the Picture with PictureBox.Picture but the result is always null. >From my point of view that means, that mplayer doesn't write to the component, instead it writes to the area of the component in the x server. Does anybody have an idea how to play a video inside gambas and how to access images from that video in order to resize them or apply effects? Does anybody know how to modify the mplayer example to really write to the PictureBox not to the area of the PictureBox ?
